Long Description
2 Green Gin Case bottles, molded bodies with melted on necks. Almost identical except for shoulder design. Molded in 'Blankenheim and Nolet' on one flat side. The one found in Quebec is mint with vibrant colour. The one found in the Bahamas is faded and feels brittle, it has a small barnacle on its neck and a small clamshell inside.
History
I found one in a refuse pit for an old tavern in Qubec, Canada and I found the other almost identical twin underwater while diving in the Bahamas out islands.
